You may remember we met at a Mystical Theology conference in Dublin and talked about it. In the end I wrote von Balthasar out of the thesis – I found it unworkable – but the building block work to critique him was so helpful and I have a draft article arguing that von Balthasar’s unconscious and unacknowledged conceptions of love distorts his whole theology.
Blessings for your work, Chelle

Sat, 16 May 2015 21:01:10 +0000http://reddresstheology.wordpress.com/?p=523#comment-5942Thanks for taking the time to comment. Kierkegaard doesn’t do it for me, and once my thesis is published you’ll be able to read why. But I’m glad he’s helpful for you and happy to post your comments and essay links for others to explore.
For me, it came down to a philosophical disagreement about LIMIT SITUATIONS and a divergence between Plato and Kant. In the end I am persuaded that writing about love must resist any kind of final philosophical definition.
All the best, Chelle

Wed, 13 May 2015 20:39:43 +0000http://reddresstheology.com/?p=1109#comment-5932“Love perceived by love” is straight out of Works of Love. Kierkegaard develops this at length.

Wed, 13 May 2015 20:25:10 +0000http://reddresstheology.com/?p=1515#comment-5931Here are two essays of mine on love. One is also an attempt at a definition. (Not sure I captured every facet!)

Wed, 13 May 2015 20:13:37 +0000http://reddresstheology.wordpress.com/?p=523#comment-5930First, onto grammatical errors: “it’s sex is dry” should be “its sex is dry.”
Second, this is a good essay. I like your blog. It’s good.
Third, you definitely need to read Works of Love by Kierkegaard. Also, The Little Prince is good stuff, too!
Kierkegaard’s conception of love is arguable one of the most thorough and brilliant.
